Otherwise, consider it a reflection of that moment. It’s not the headmaster, it’s the portrait of a headmaster. It vividly and actively portrays the headmaster in question, but it isn’t them.
Like an advanced LLM recreating a personality by copying their social media content.
The thing that didn’t really make sense to me or at least is super confusing with this is, that some people have multiple paintings that are somehow linked. They can move between these paintings and can never be in two paintings at the same time. The people in the paintings in Hogwarts can just casually walk between all the different paintings in the castle, not just the ones they are in, so these are all linked together, but if any of these paintings would be linked to one outside the castle it’s not clear if any person from any painting can just move to that painting outside the castle or just the one who the painting originally depicted. The images on the chocolate frog cards are apparently also linked, but the moving photos in the newspaper aren’t.
Siriusly, magic.
